The only battery that I know about in this unit is in the remote control. Otherwise it plugs into the wall.

You can use it both with batteries or pluged into a 9v power source. But there's no AC adapter included !!!

No, it uses a rechargeable battery that comes with it, is fixed to it and only this item can use it.

NO! Although it pops up in search for battery operated lights, it plugs in. Yet another in the myriad Amazon search fails.

It's a plug in only. I don't see anywhere there is a location for batteries.

Yes, it does take batteries. You can also purchase a power plug separately.

Yes it uses batteries or you can plug it in (if you get all that come with it.) see the other reviews. I was apparently lucky to get both lol

no. But I have mine plugged in beside my chair. Just turn it on when needed. I have never put batteries in. If you travel you might want the battery option.

According to my wife the answer is no, it must be plugged in. She loves it though.

No. You have to insert batteries and there's no place to plug in. I don't know if they make rechargeable batteries in that type.

Absolutely not. Unit operates when plugged . Once you unplug ,if turned on ,starts operating using the batteries.

Yes, it has a plug-in electric adapter. It does not have the ability to run on batteries.

No, but the item is good enough to let it run on batteries. You can buy rechargeable batteries with a charger, a good idea.

Yes. I always use it with rechargeable batteries. It doesn't last for 18 months though.

Yes, it can also be plugged in and it does come with the cord. It still need to be charged though.
